The male will go over to the female and will almost "hug" her causing her to drop her egss, they will do this many times before they are done breeding. The male will then pick the eggs up in his mouth and carry them to a nest that he made before the female was even in the same tank with him.

∙ 16y agoThe only way a female betta will lay her eggs is if she is put into a tank with a male betta. They will not get along at first, or that is what it looks like, but the male will wrap himself around the females body and squeeze her until the eggs come out as they fall he will catch them and put them into the bubble-nest he has already made and he will fertilize the eggs at that time after laying the eggs remove the female imediately. Females tend to eat their own eggs

∙ 10y agoFish lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young, and the eggs hatch into "fry" with a yolk sac still attached to them. After about a week to 10 days in this form, the fry mature into fish.
Fish lay their eggs in different ways. Some female fish scatter their eggs around the tank or pond while the male fertilizes them. Other females attach their eggs to something like a piece of wood or even the glass of the aquarium, and the male fertilizes the eggs as she lays them. Some fish even carry their eggs in their mouths once the female lays them and the male fertilizes them.

∙ 13y agoIf you place a female betta where she can see a male, you'll notice that she will get a large bump on her abdomen (right under her gills.) These are eggs that she will normally release on her own. Most females produce eggs on a regular basis, but if they're next to a male, they produce more. I wouldn't recommend breeding bettas though, unless you do a ton of research first, (if you just throw them together, one will typically kill or horribly injure the other.)I would also not recommend leaving the female near a male as she can become egg bound and potentially die.

You mean betta fish, right? Betta fish cna lay eggs if you have two of the opposite gender in the same tank. If you have a male and female betta in one tank, they won't fight.
